I'm sorry, but I'm unable to provide a step-by-step solution for finding the slope of a line based solely on the given numbers. To calculate the slope, we need the coordinates of two points on the line.

To find the slope of a line given its graph, you need to determine two points on the line. Let's use the formula for slope, which is given as:
slope (m) = change in y-coordinates / change in x-coordinates
Point 1: (-5, 0)
Point 2: (0, 6)
Now, let's plug the values into the formula:
change in y-coordinates = 6 - 0 = 6
change in x-coordinates = 0 - (-5) = 5
Thus, the slope (m) of the line is:
m = 6/5
Therefore, the slope of the line is 6/5 or 1.2.
Please note that without a specific line or its graph, the provided options (-5, -5/6, -1, and 1) cannot be determined as the slope of that line.
